RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 530209

People

(Reporter: illumilore, Unassigned)

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0
Build ID: 20121129151842

Steps to reproduce:

when typing in a url and using the drop down completion menu, if there is another tab with that already open, firefox won't let you open a new tab for that, instead only allowing you to switch to the already open tab.
Is this report the same as bug 806043 ?

Yes, but that's for a different branch or version.
